Ok so now I m trying a batch file but still cannot figure out how to get the PC name or anything for that matter in the User name field during installation.
</div>


<div>
I see no reason why a batch file should not replace valid environment variables enclosed with % signs &nbsp;(such as %COMPUTERNAME% ) with the value held by the operating system. &nbsp;The User Name would however be held in the %USERNAME% variable.<br />
<br />
Are there any documented Startup Switches for the application that you are trying to install which would help achieve your objective?<br />

</div>


<div>
Im afraid there are no documented swtich s for the application in fact the companys network upgrade solution is to install the clint on each PC manually!!!!<br />
<br />
The Batch file below is what I m working with at the moment.<br />
The Setup will run but the batch will not place the %COMPUTERNAME% into the Username field.<br />
<br />
@Echo ON<br />
<br />
Start \\SERVERNAME\Monarch\Setup<wbr />\Setup.exe<wbr /> <br />
<br />
set USERNAME=%COMPUTERNAME%<br />

</div>


<div>
Thanks for the link,<br />
Works up to a point.<br />
<br />
Unfortunaltetly it inputs %COMPUTERNAME% rather than the actual comptuer name.<br />
<br />
Still working on it.
</div>


<div>
There isn't an environment variable for the computer name, other than %computername%. &nbsp;The descriptive computer name will be stored in the registry. &nbsp;I found it lurking on this key:-<br />
<br />
HKLM\System\ControlSet001\<wbr />Services\l<wbr />anmanserve<wbr />r\paramete<wbr />rs\srvcomm<wbr />ent<br />

Hi All,<br />
I am trying to get some software to install automatically without the need for use input.<br />
<br />
The issue is I need the program to use the Computer name it is installing on as the input for the User name field during install.<br />
<br />
This would allow me to remotely install this program to multiple PC's using LANDesk.<br />
<br />
I have edited the setup.ini file which looks like this <br />
[Startup]<br />
AppName=Monarch<br />
ProductGUID=DF48ECA4-D01E-<wbr />4347-B1CE-<wbr />E388FBEF28<wbr />6A<br />
[Languages]<br />
Default=0x0009<br />
count=1<br />
key0=0x0009<br />
<br />
to include <br />
[Options]<br />
USERNAME=%COMPUTERNAME%<br />
<br />
but it has no effect.<br />
<br />
Can anyone help?

Auto fill Username fiel during installation

Software is any set of instructions that directs a computer to perform specific tasks or operations. Computer software consists of programs, libraries and related non-executable data (such as documentation). Computer software is non-tangible, contrasted with computer hardware, which is the physical component of computers. Software written in a machine language is known as "machine code". However, in practice, software is usually written in high-level programming languages than machine language. High-level languages are translated into machine language using a compiler or interpreter or a combination of the two.
